  • I think you can compare opacity.

    opacity < 100 --> do that

  • Hello

    I would like to create a row of sprites aligned next to each other with random widths using an array

    Something like this:

    Where each X value defines the sprites's width

    I know how to create the sprites and get the correct width from the array, but how do I align them correctly (at the end of each previous sprite) ? Is there a simple way using the same array ?

    Thanks

  • Thanks guys

    JamesXXXYZ & Somebody: About the launch countdown...maybe I'll reduce it a bit (I guess it can be redundant if you keep dying & dying ^^ )

    rho Yes the permissions are from CocoonJS...I think they're "working" on removing them. There is also a turnaround (editing the apk) but that looked quite a hassle so yea..

  • Thanks Detteman and thanks for the rating !

  • Hello,

    Here is a little game I've been developing for quite some time now.

    It's a challenging game inspired by Lunar Lander, where you fly a spaceship in a low gravity environment and try to "carefully" land it

    Download it here:

  • Hello

    Anyone know how are created infinite multi-scrolling games ?

    here is a video of this kind of game:

    The layout is always the same, so if you keep going through the same direction, you will always meet the same objects again & again at their X-Y coordinates (excepted if they are moving). So you somehow "teleport" to one side to another when you reach one end of the layout... it's kinda like an infinite runner but where you would start back at the beginning (uninterrupted / while keeping the same scrolling speed) when you reach the end... and with the same objects you encountered again.

    I dont understand how they are created (theoretically), anyone know how ?

  • johnsmith - your example also uses nonsensical events - I have no idea what you expect 'trigger once' underneath a loop to do, it just doesn't make sense. If the above fix doesn't work in that case, try making as simple as possible reproduction .capx and posting a new bug report (following all the guidelines) for that. As far as we are aware the Dictionary plugin is working fine and it's also a very simple plugin so it would be surprising if something was wrong with it.

    Thanks for your help Ashley.

    I've dowloaded the fix, but the problem was the same.

    I've removed all 'trigger once' as you said, and it's working now... So it was my mistake, sorry... Guess I still have to learn when to use "trigger once", gonna check the manual some more.

  • Can anyone confirm that r167 has fixed it?

    I still have my problem with the dictionary triggering order:

    This is the thread I've made (which contains a capx):

    As I'm not an expert I can't be sure I've done my dictionary events right, but then why would it work with r163 and not with r166 & 167 ?

  • Ah all right, thanks for the tip ! )

  • Seems like you're right, just recreated theses events with R163 and it works flawlessly.

    Too bad I can't use my project on r163 anymore :/

    Looking forward to the fix

  • Problem Description

    Problem using dicionary's keys to store doors & keys lock/unlock states.

    Depending of the orders the dictionary keys are being called...it works or it doesnt...

    If i click the red key (red square) first and then the yellow one, it works.

    If I click the yellow first and then the red one, it doesnt.
